Tax Evasion Charges in California

California tax evasion under Revenue and Taxation Code § 19705 covers willful failure to file, filing false returns, and fraudulent schemes to avoid state taxes. Federal charges under 26 U.S.C. § 7201 apply to federal tax evasion. These cases are typically the result of multi-year investigations by the FTB, IRS, or both. By the time an arrest is made, the prosecution has already built a detailed financial picture. Bail is set based on the alleged tax loss and flight risk — often $25,000 to $250,000 or more.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is bail set for tax evasion?

Bail is typically based on the alleged tax loss and the defendant's flight risk. A $100,000 tax loss may carry $50,000–$100,000 bail. Larger schemes or defendants with significant assets or international ties may see higher amounts.

Will there be a PC 1275 hold?

Sometimes. It depends on the size of the alleged tax loss and whether the prosecution argues your accessible assets are tainted. Chad has navigated these hearings and knows what documentation the court needs.

What if the IRS is involved?

Federal tax evasion cases are handled by a federal magistrate. Chad is licensed for federal bonds in Southern California. Federal cases move faster and the documentation requirements are stricter — call as early as possible.
